Hi We are a new web design company and are in a very tight budget. We can only pay $ 2000 for the initial marketing materials and advertising. Here are some of our ideas. Could you please help your experience to the methods of work and methods that do not? And how should we allocate the $ 2,000 we have? Please bring new ideas if you have another method that works! What type of business are more likely to web design and web development services? Email Marketing – $ 25 e-mail, direct mail Postcard – $ 0.55 per postcard Yahoo Yellow Pages – 125/month Yahoo Local – $ 10 a month pays $ per click – $ 1 + Cards per click (5000) – $ 100 Brochures (5000) – 550 folders $ (2500) – $ 1430 Postal (5000) – $ 330 Great Postal (2500) – $ 390 Calendar (300) – 360 bumper sticker $ (500) – $ 800 bags for laptops – $ 335
As a web design company, more than marketing campaigns, the best way to reach new customers is to have an impressive portfolio to show. Maybe you can work for a discounted fee or pro bono for some friends or relatives, only to have a portfolio of work to display. What I see missing in your list are the press releases. Press releases have different uses: they can alert the media their traditional new business (and hopefully, spoke about the media – which means you have to have a new twist or how different you are from design firms web of others). Press releases are also among the easiest way to get incoming links, and thus help their ranking in the engines search. PRWeb http://www.prweb.com can send your release and get it through Yahoo and Google News for a minimum of $ 80 a calendar, stickers, laptop bags – I'm not sure those are the most effective ways to get customers for your business, especially considering that you have a tight budget. An important marketing tool that forgetting is the networking. Red lets you know people, other business people who may be interested to rework their websites or create websites. Join organizations and business associations in your area – and the budget for membership fees, if applicable. Talk about your business for them, and even can refer you to other people who needs their services. Consider joining http://www.bni.com/ BNI (Business Network Int'l.) That is a business and professional networking organization that offers members the opportunity to share ideas, contacts and most importantly, referrals. "Chambers of commerce can can also be a good reference source. I would focus more on the local market, but be careful carefully monitor their return on investment. Yahoo Yellow pages is expensive – so check if you really bring traffic and customers. email marketing where you purchase an email for $ 0.25 cents is not a good idea. You basically be spamming people, buying email lists, however, these persons were unable to agree or wanted TU receive e-mail. Be careful in using this approach as the last thing you want your company is called a spammer. I know that you are just starting, But web designers are often more successful if they offer services beyond web design. Diversify its services to include drafting advertising, search engine optimization, managing pay per click, or even just maintaining the site.
